Part of a vertical tasting from 07-21. This was in a great place. Acidity is holding these aged wines together nicely.

Lovely nose of white flowers and hay, but a bit flat on the palate and short on the finish

After sitting a few years this is in a really nice spot. Definitely a cool climate variation of the varietal but it is singing along now.

Very Peay in their wine style. Crisp but with fullness and balance.

Much more approachable than the 2011 at the moment. But hold hold hold.

2012 vintage. First time trying Peay's Viognier. If there's a better New World Viognier out there, I haven't tried it. Focused, intense, and pure. Who knew Viognier could be so refreshing?
